Veterinary vaccines are a fast growing component of the overall animal health market which itself was worth approximately $24bn/yr in 2013. Key segments are vaccines for companion animals such as the canine and feline markets along with livestock, pigs and poultry. Veterinary vaccines are attractive commercially due to population growth and an increased demand for animal protein as a food source especially driven by emerging markets. In the West, where animal companionship is high, an aging population calls for increased health and well-being of pets where vaccines comprise of around half of total veterinary vaccine market value. A continued threat from zoonoses, which are estimated to affect 14 million people annually, and market attractiveness drive an active research and development pipeline in veterinary vaccines. The top four market players Merck & Co, Zoetis, Merial (Sanofi-Aventis) and Vetmedica comprise around 70% of total veterinary vaccine sales.
